- 2018 Civic Hatchback Ex
What's up everybody, just got my civic hatchback ex and haven't tuned a car before. I'm wondering if anyone has suggestions for tuning.
I'm not loyal to either hondata or ktuner so I could go with either. Obviously its better to get it custom dyno'd for my specific driving conditions. I know that the CVT trans is usually the limiting factor when tuning these cars and I'm not beating it up (its just my commuter), so I'm wondering what bolt-ons are even worth it (if any). Or if I should just keep it all ECU upgrading? I don't want to push the limits of the CVT because I'll probably keep the car for a while.
Anyone feel strongly on base maps vs custom tune assuming I'm not tracking it or pushing it hard every time I drive?
Thanks in advance guys. Really excited to finally have a car that I can have fun with.
